DON`T GIVE UP TILL IT`S OVER
Chorus:
Don`t give up till it`s over, don`t quit if you can
The weight on your shoulder will make you a stronger man

Grasp your nettle tightly, though it will burn
Treat your failures lightly, your luck is bound to turn

Look at the autumn flowers how they wither and fade
With nature`s hidden powers, next year they`ll be re-made

Watch the full moon rising, like a ghost of the sun
(?) more surprising, when the new day has begun

Chorus repeated

This is what Ronnie Drew sings on the Dubliners' "40 years" CD:

Don't give up till it's over
(Johnny Duhan)

Chorus:
Don't give up till it's over, don't quit if you can
The weight upon your shoulder will make you a stronger man

Grasp your nettle tightly, though it will burn
Treat your failures lightly, your luck is bound to turn

Chorus

Look at the autumn flowers how they wither and fade
With nature's hidden powers, next year they'll be re-made

Chorus

Watch the full moon rising, like a ghost of the sun
Oh, dawn will be more surprising, when a new day has begun

Chorus x2

Best wishes,

Bente

Does anyone know where to find the notes - not just the chords? :-)
